Tasmanian producers and processors asked to define lamb

The Sheepmeat Council of Australia wants to know your definition of lamb.

Lamb producers and processors have been asked to comment before November 29, Sheepmeat Council of Australia director Mick Craig said.

“We need industry to all be on the same page about the lamb definition to guarantee that we can move to a fit for purpose sheep meat and livestock language,” Mr Craig said.

“The lamb definition discussion is one component of the work that council is considering as part of a broader review of the sheepmeat language, but it’s a critical point that’s affecting some producers,” he said.
